The fourth strongest earthquake in the last 100 years wakes up Western New Yorkers Monday

It was the strongest earthquake to hit the Western New York region in 40 years. The last back in 1999 measured 3.8.

As a life-long experienced earthquake survivor, including the Loma Prieta quake, earthquakes don’t generally make sounds like the boom described, sounds come from damages done such as to buildings. If a boom accompanies the shaking, I’d look into explosions or other subterranean actions like drilling and blasting

Holy crap! That was strong. So the earths core slowed almost to a stop, is changing direction, and all over the world on the same day there are earthquakes. Wondering about that. Makes sense if you think about it.

Pray for Turkey people. We are one all human race

I was in the 1964 Alaskan Earthquake. Try a 9.2 for almost 5 minutes!

Take care, NY. That was just a kiss, hopefully it won't be back for more...quakes can last a long time as far as aftershocks.

That's not a normal earth quake, that's more like someone playing god, using bombs under ground

There’s a war being waged in hollow earth…

I use to live in Schenectady and we use to feel very mild earthquakes but that would be it. It felt like something rolled under our house.

I haven't heard any coyotes howl last night at 2 a.m in a while. So when I heard them last night I just kept thinking California is gonna get an earthquake or somewhere else . And I woke up to the news about 2 earthquakes in elsewhere. I know Cali is next !!

That was not an earthquake. There have been these all over the US
and they are not on the USGS real time monitoring system

[brettgabel]

Not a damn peep about the size of it?? Guessing what a 3.5?? Sheesh ppl..

For those that live in Alaska, they don't even flinch over something that weak!

The earthquakes on the east coast are different. When we got that earthquake in 2011 it sounded like a sonic boom, but it was an earthquake. Come to think of it the earthquakes in SoCo sounded like sonic booms. You didn't know if they were doing something at Edwards or if it was an earthquake. You got so use to hearing that, you just didn't pay attention to it anymore.

The Big Guy is gonna assign Kamala to investigate and keep us informed

3.8? my toliet massacres rumble higher than that.

[genocidevirus]

God must hate buffalo. You guys are pummeled by almost everything.

[ghostfoxtrot]

Thats not an Earthquake There be a lot more motion involved And then a strong aftershock which would be more rocking for a longer period of time

Para los que dicen que es la naturaleza

So basically it was the equivalent of a raucous fart...👍
